<h2>What is an electric fuse?</h2><h3>Answer: Electric fuse is a safety device used to limit the current in an electric circuit which melts and breaks the circuit whenever there is an excess flow of current through the circuit.</h3><h2>What is the working principle of electric fuse?</h2><h3>An electric fuse is based on the principle of heating effect of electric current. It is made up of thin metallic wire of non-combustible material. A fuse is always connected between the ends of the terminal in a series connection with the circuit.</h3>

dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

diameter of spacecraft d=148\ m

radius r=74\ m

Force of gravity F_g=mg

where m =mass of object

g=acceleration due to  gravity on earth

Suppose v is the speed at which spacecraft is rotating so a net centripetal  acceleration is acting on spacecraft which is given by

F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}

F_c=F_g

\frac{mv^2}{r}=mg

\frac{v^2}{r}=g

v=\sqrt{gr}

v=\sqrt{1450.4}

v=38.08\ m/s

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

1.04 s

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

t = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (v/c)^2)

here

v = 0.5c

t = 1.20 -s

So,

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5/c)^2)

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5)^2)

1.20 = t' ÷ √0.75

1.20 = t' ÷ 0.866

t' = 0.866 × 1.20

= 1.04 s

The above formula should be applied

A Porsche challenges a Honda to a 400 m race. Because the Porsche's acceleration of 3.4 m/s2 is larger than the Honda's 3.0 m/s2
padilas [110]

Answer:

Winner wins by 0.969 s

Explanation:

For the Porche:

Given:

Displacement of Porsche s = 400 m

Acceleration of Porsche a = 3.4 m/s^2

From Newton's second equation of motion,

s = ut + (1/2) a t^2 (u = 0 as the car was initially at rest)

Substituting the values into the equation, we have

t^2 = (2 * 400) / 3.4

= 235.29 / 3.4

t = 15.33 s

For the Honda:

Displacement of Honda = 310 m

Acceleration of Honda = 3 m/s^2

Applying Newton's second equation of motion

s = ut + (1/2) a t^2 (u = 0 for same reason)

Substituting the values into the equation, we obtain

t^2 = (2 * 310) / 3

= 620 / 3

t = 14.37 s

Hence

The winner (honda) wins by a time interval of = 15.33 - 14.37    

=0.969 s

How does competition affect population size? Use the terms carrying capacity and limiting factor with your example.
svetoff [14.1K]

Limiting factors are resources or other factors in the environment that can lower the population growth rate. Competition for resources like food and space cause the growth rate to stop increasing, so the population levels off. This flat upper line on a growth curve is the carrying capacity.
